“Far too many in our Church haven’t been opting for the poor, preferring instead the pet social causes of wealthy Western elites. Pentecostals may lack substance, but at least they’re talking to the poor about Jesus and not climate change. https://t.co/rcb50tAvvi“
Exactly. If people are of a religious bent, they’ll gravitate to the denomination they find most meaningful. Many Central and South Americans have left Catholicism for various Protestant sects — like the former addict and prostitute in this piece who happily joined a welcoming Pentecostal church. For the same reason, violent Mexican drug cartel members practice weird sorts of voodoo and santeria. It “speaks to them.”
Hammer, meet nail.
